Oh my that guitar does sparkle. Wonderfully played as well.


The clip sounds like Winchester Cathedral.

Quick update, the guitar is past amazing, it sounds great brand new so I can't imagine it after playing it for several months. Visually it is stunning, the pictures don't do it justice. I also want to give kudos to Ryan for spending quite a bit of time while I was there dialing in the setup exactly where I like it, it is perfect! It is certainly my dream guitar, thanks to everyone for following along it has been a fun time for sure. Now it's time for me to put down the IPad and pick up this amazing guitar!!

Still no winner yet in the mystery song competition - style points not withstanding.

I'm so pleased it plays well Dave. I hope it brings much joy.

Well... Maybe if "someone" would play it at tempo, we wouldn't need to play "Name that Tune"

?

After playing this guitar for a week I really couldn't be more pleased. It is completely different tonally than my deep body OM which is what I had hoped. It is a large guitar but is extremely well balanced with excellent volume. It is evenly balanced all the way up the neck and it plays like a dream (thanks Ryan) The PO Cedar delivers a nice rumbly bass, but it doesn't drown out the trebles at all. So at this stage I am more than pleased and am looking forward to many years of enjoyment from this guitar. This guitar will be my main in home guitar so it should get plenty of playing time.

The sound clips on this one are ethereal. Really nice choice.

Thanks guys for the very kind words.
Yes, we were purposely trying to obfuscate with that mystery rendition.
It doesn't help that it is a rather obscure tune to begin with, recorded decades ago. Does that help?

Every time I take this guitar out of the case I am mesmerized by its beauty. Sometimes I stop playing and turn it around just to look at it! I have never seen a set of wood this pretty, and the green abalone sets it off perfectly. As I've said what seems to be 100 times before, WELL DONE GENTS! I love it

Thank you Dave. Glad it still mesmerizes!
